Mr. Norwood- were sondially. welcomed Methodist supporters, and thor" on to WE ooh, were Hames ihseribed names of | many Methodist relatives of Mr. Doubt from thes West country, given at the inception of the great work of erecting the million guinea fundsfor Metho- dist work. It was to the City. of Bristol that Mx. Doubt came as a lad with his trade in his hands to seek work and fortune, and after many hardships and much travel, His return to it wag a matter of absorbing interest. Both Mr. and Mrs, Doubt were enabled to see the great sights of the city. Mr. Doubt was deeply impressed with a comparatively new 'social movement which combines in a remarkably efficient way a 'great Suestionsl; social and religious work. The centre of this activity is at Folk House, situated in the heart: "of the city, and Mr. Doubt was made welcome to inspect the institution and also attend one of its principal lectures. Here educational work of a very high "order combined with theological lectures is carried on with great ap- preciation, The drama is also utilized as a means of social and moral 'education, In view 'of Mr, Doubt's interest and visiting from Canada, by a' special act of courtesy arrangements were made for him to look over the superb New University Buildings. The extension has been carried out at a cost of approximately $1,250,000. The building is one of the architectural glories of the age--is of the Gothic type with imposing tower of gredt beauty. The belfry contains a bell of some ten tons in weight, ene of the third largest in the country. * The main hall, 100 feet by 50 feet jg panelled throughout with oak and is superbly decorated, as is also the extensive and well appointed library. The educational facilities are beyond reproach and the terms so moder- ate that students are drawn from every grade of life. * Before leaving the building, Mr, Doubt, coming from Canada, was intro- duced to a'former Lord Mayor of the City, whose sons are farming in the- Dominion, and some interesting information concerning the University of Capada was exchanged. Mr. Doubt was provided With literature With par- ticulars for his Canadian friends. In his early life Mr, Doubt was associated with the Temperance Move" ment in the West of England as his relatives were, and are today. During the war, Mr. Doubt was assiduous in sending to England information con- cerning the Prohibition activitiees in Canada which proved of much practical value in the British war time campaign with the same object. On his visit Mr, Doubt was interviewed by the chief officers of the Wekt®of England Temperance Movement, and much valuable information was exchanged con- cerning activities in this country, and Mr. Doubt returns with valuable in- formation for his"Canadian friends. Among other information, Mr. Doubt was informed that numbers of portable stalls had been placed about the City of Bristol, as a means of re- freshment apart from the Public House, and that at one in the centre of 'the City, one thousand cups of tea' were dispefsed daily, in addition to "min- eral and soft drinks. _ Both Mr. and Mrs. Doubt were invited to attend and take a place on the platfornr-at the 88th annual conference of the Temperance League held at Bath, and Mr, Doubt was requested to speak there. Unfortunately, illness within the family circle made this impossible. However Mr, Doubt expressed pleasure at the progress of the British movement. It is his opinion that Great Britain cannot afford the drink traffic with an annual expenditure of £316,000,000 upon liquor, while at the same time she is weighted down with a million and a quarter unemployed and with a National Debt which drains her to the prodigious Pewrs, of. £800, £000,000 per annum. wily With his English experience, Mr, Doubt is, despite. vested interests and law views, a still more convinced prohibitionist, both for Great Britain and Canada. Before sailing a visit was paid to Wesley's historic Chapel and rooms in the heart of the ancient part of Bristol. It was here that. Wesley was a frequent preacher; here that mounted on a elevation at the rear of the pulpit, seeing, but unseen he heard his students preach--to their later guidance and profit. Here it was he prayed, studied, and wrote voluminously, In the attached rooms his followers mét for tea on special preaching oc-1] casions and the very tables and forms they used are extant there. In the galleried Chapel itself is the ancient rlock, 86 inches in diameter, his services were timed by, and the very table 'upon which he administered the sacrament to the hungry seekérs for spiritual consolation and strength o: those fierce days, is a treasured object.
